Two things fill the mind with ever new and increasing admiration and awe, the more often and steadily we reflect upon them: the starry heavens above me and the moral law within me.
—Immanuel Kant

Bloody and wan (Claudius)

How would I endure it if, bloody and wan,
      The slaughtered came to me in sleep,
All those mourning spirits, and began
      Around me to weep?

Matthias Claudius, from "War Song"
